EU referendum: Brexit ahead by 2
by Irn Bru Tue Sep 29, 2015 10:04 pm
For the first time since November 2014 more British people want to leave the EU than remain a member
Until September support for remaining in the EU had been in positive territory for 8 consecutive months. Between June, the last time we asked the referendum question, and September, opinion has shifted slightly – now leaving the EU has a two point lead.
This coincides with the European refugee crisis and problems in Calais over the summer, but we can't be sure if this has caused the shift in mood. British people have been wary of accepting more refugees, and they may be concerned continued membership of the EU could increase our exposure, but Britain has so far exempted itself from EU migrant quotas.
The research puts the 'In' camp at 38%, down 6% since June, and 'Out' at 40%, up 6%. Until around the time of the European Parliament elections in 2014, when EU membership became more of a reality in people's minds due to increased coverage, 'Out' had had a fairly steady lead.

Interesting poll that will 'Call me Dave' panicking.
I doubt that will be the result of the actual referendum after big business swings into the fray - time will tell.

I reckon the real support for leaving the EU is much higher than the bullshit polls claim...

I think you will find that big business warnings will swing it to stay with support from Cameron to back it up.
I doubt we will be leaving anytime soon.

Scaremongering by business who seek to profit, and assurances by Cameron!!!???
It is a simple matter of democracy and sovereignty for me... both lost while we remain in this EU political construct that removes both and that nobody has actually voted for!
